NASSAU, Bahamas — A suspect in the abduction of several children under the age of 14 in The Bahamas was brought before the magistrate’s court in The Bahamas last Thursday, less than a week after two suspects were arrested by members of the Royal Bahamas Police Force (RBPF).
The two women, one aged 29 named, De’Edra Michelle Gibson, who was formally charged on Thursday and the other, a 35 year old resident from the island of Eleuthera, whose name was not released but whom police believe acted as an accomplice for Gibson during the abductions, but was not charged along with Gibson, was wanted in four of the five abductions between February 17 and March 7, 2019.
Gibson is said to have confessed to the crimes during her interrogation by Bahamian police officers, but has not given up a motive for her actions, which has still left some members of the public puzzled as to why would she abduct children and then only to leave them at obscure and puzzling places around the island of New Providence.
In two of the incidents, Gibson left her child victims unharmed by the gates of the City Landfill.
Gibson was also wanted in question for an attempted kidnapping of another male child, aged 12, at the end of March but that child got away from her and described the nature of his attempt abduction to his parents.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
